[9] From 1930 to 1936, Farrar was regularly featured in the school's on-air outlet, the dramatic anthology series, The Faucit Theatre of the Air,[10] at least one episode of which he also wrote, adapting J. S. Coyne's one-act comedy, One Night of Terror.

[13] The Faucit Theatre Players also performed live on occasion, such as their 1935 production of Schiller's Mary Stuart—with Farrar's portrayal of Lord Burleigh deemed "extremely good" by the Oakland Tribune[14]—and their 1934 revival of Elmer Greensfelder's Broomsticks, Amen, of which the Tribune's Wood Soanes wrote: Here is the stuff of which high tragedy is made, but Greensfelder succeeded in evolving only obvious melodrama.

[15]Beginning on October 4, 1937, Farrar appeared with Howard Duff, Jack Edwards, Marjorie Smith and Herb Allen in the Mutual Broadcasting serial The Phantom Pilot.

[18] On August 26, 1953, Hollywood Citizen-News entertainment writer Zuma Palmer drew readers' attention to an uncommon occurrence: at a time when the prohibition of prerecorded network radio dramas had only recently been lifted, both Farrar and co-star Marian Richman appeared on Dr. Christian and simultaneously on the transcribed series, Family Theater.

[1] On April 4, 1974, while onstage at the Mendocino Arts Center, portraying Orgon in Molière's Tartuffe, Farrar suffered a heart attack and collapsed.
